11. What was your previous one?
And out of curiosity, what does your current user name mean? It's curious: crimson with a space.

18. The previous one was kiraboo.
And crimson has a terribly melodramatic origin that has something to do with why I changed it. Anyway, don't laugh: broken and bleeding. That was me at the time. Now that I'm beginning to heal I wish I were just kiraboo again!

36. I wouldn't laugh.
Everyone been there in one way or another at some time.

BTW, good luck selling the house. Saw the link to your house you provided in some other thread. Very pretty. Decor is a *bit* to fancy for my tastes, but I'd kill for a yard like that! Someone's bound to fall in love w/that house!

:D

7. yes
During the amnesty period following the 2004 election. I wouldn't have done it if it weren't for the amnesty because I'm closing in on 10,000 posts and I wouldn't want to start over again

I really don't give a damn about post counts. Anyone who thinks that my opinion is less valid because my post count is low, is probably someone whose opinion I don't care about, anyway.

Edit: Third person seems less nasty.

16. The OP didn't say
anything about post counts. Why so nasty? Having a bad day?

I can understand why some folks around here wouldn't want to give up their number of post counts, merely because they are so high and not necessarily for the reason you state.

19. I didn't mean to sound nasty.
Sorry if it came out nasty, but it's was just a statement of fact. Some people may not want to lose a high post count, but I don't feel that way. :hi:

23. Upon a second reading, it sounded a bit harsh in 2nd person,
so I edited it. I guess you have to be careful with newfangled super-ignore functions around. :)

Yes...because I couldn't remember what the hell it was, or my password. Billyskank found it once for me, but I forgot what it was again....something about a wallflower liberal or liberal wallflower...something like that. I didn't post much back then.

41. Came in right after the 2004 elections when the republics were
accusing the dems of whining about a conspiracy theory. They were making fun of all the tinfoil here on DU. It just seemed like the right name at the time, but now it is pretty out of date. Just wasn't thinking in the long term. I guess I wouldn't mind a change. But now it would feel kind of like a face lift. I guess I could always call myself Botoxinfor2007. :)
